Perhaps the most pleasant change for Suns Head Coach Jeff Hornacek during post-practice interviews was the lack of injury-related questions he had to answer.

With Eric Bledsoe back from a calf injury that forced him to miss six games, the Suns are essentially back at full strength.

“He came out good today,” Hornacek said yesterday. “I think he’s fine and ready to be playing now.”

So that’s that. Their restored health, however, means an end to adjusting without significant players and a beginning to reincorporating them back into the rotation and system.

No one is more affected by this than Gerald Green. The 6-8 swingman filled in admirably as a starter while Bledsoe and, earlier last month, Goran Dragic missed a combined 10 games. He averaged 15.8 points while shooting 38.7 percent from three-point range in 12 games as part of the first five, establishing himself as the team’s third-leading scorer behind the backcourt teammates he had temporarily replaced.
